Psalm 101 is a great place to start, and it gives us a beginning to cultivate a God-centered life. David starts by praising God for who He is love, justice and worshiping Him in truth. He resolves that he will be deliberate in the way that he follows the Lord. Explains warnings to the wicked. David’s longing for the LORD was connected to his desire to live a wise and holy life (perfect way). Staying away from the wicked and staying blameless. The moral within this Psalm is to lead a blameless life and lead a personal life pure and honest. Sing to the Lord.
Psalm 101:1-8 NIV
Of David. A psalm.
I will sing of your love and justice; to you, Lord, I will sing praise. I will be careful to lead a blameless life, when will you come to me? I will conduct the affairs of my house with a blameless heart. I will not look with approval on anything that is vile. I hate what faithless people do; I will have no part in it. The perverse of heart shall be far from me; I will have nothing to do with what is evil. Whoever slanders their neighbor in secret, I will put to silence whoever has haughty eyes and a proud heart, I will not tolerate. My eyes will be on the faithful in the land, that they may dwell with me. The one whose walk is blameless will minister to me. No one who practices deceit will dwell in my house; no one who speaks falsely will stand in my presence. Every morning I will put to silence all the wicked in the land. I will cut off every evildoer from the city of the Lord.
